Barreiro is a railway station on the Alentejo Line that serves as a connection between rail services on the South Bank of the Tagus and Soflusa's river transport to Lisbon, Portugal. The first Barreiro station began operating on June 15, 1857,[1] although it was not inaugurated until February 1, 1861.[2] Since it was too far from the river pier, a new station was built and inaugurated in 1884.[3] This station included an important workshop hub, which underwent extension work during the 1900s,[4] but the facilities were becoming insufficient for the demand by the following decade.[5] However, political and social instability, which was reflected in the administration of the railroads, dragged out the process. It was not until the 1930s that the new workshops were completed.[6] Meanwhile, in 1923 the Ramal do Seixal branch line went into service,[7] and in 1935 the railway between Barreiro and Lavradio was duplicated.[8] The Barreiro station was remodeled and expanded in 1943,[3] and in the 1950s the workshops began to house diesel locomotives from other lines that had been electrified.[9] On December 14, 2008, a new Barreiro station was inaugurated, and the old one was closed.[10][11]
